#emacspreak, packaged for #debian, includes an earcons theme, and it is activated by default. There is a boolean switch in emacspeak's customizations for toggling it. CC: @mikegerwitz @bthall -

sublunary
/sʌbˈluːn(ə)ri/
adjective
literary
Belonging to this world as contrasted with a better or more spiritual one.Late 16th century (‘terrestrial’): from Latin sublunaris.
===
We wander below as satellites guide
The cars and trucks in which we ride.
Both they and we sublunary are.
Though "man-made" does give us pride."Our" Earth, with hubris we say.
With its other creatures we play
Fast and loose, careless in truth.
Celestial denizens look on in dismay. -

I've always pronounced it like "oo-boon-too", and have heard it like "you-bun-too". -

I would not intuitively know the meanings of these terms. -

@amic This instance got hundreds of spam sign-ups when I tried open registration. There's always some jerk that wants to sh*t in the community swimming pool -

Earcons: little non-verbal sounds that indicate status. E. G. "this is the minibuffer", "your incremental search no longer matches anything", or "you got a new direct message in an erc buffer, go look at it"... While they may not be essential for the operation of #emacspeak, they're helpful.

They greatest lesson that I have learned is that we can't make people do things we want them to do.
I cannot change someone's mind, they do that themselves. -
